As you have probably heard by now, Cyanogen is looking to make some major changes to its custom ROM platform in an attempt to make it accessible not only to Android tweakers.

The team already showcased their new logo design not long ago and this week we are getting a sneak peak of the upcoming CyanogenOS 12. As you can see for yourself in the video embedded below, the designers at Cyanogen are aiming to impress you with a clean, sleek animation centered around the brand new logo. The boot animation will be showcased every time you reboot your Android device, which we hope you won’t be doing all too often. In addition to releasing the video, Cyanogen has mentioned it will also introduce Boxer as its default email client, and in the following few weeks, you should be expecting to see more teasers, as the launch date for Cyanogen 12 draws near.

Recently, Cyanogen also announced a partnership with Qualcomm, which is designed to enable the custom ROM maker to embed its software feats and UI design elements into devices supported by Qualcomm Snapdragon 200, 400 and 600 processors (used in lower-to-mid-range handsets). Back then, Cyanogen said it was committed to providing an enhanced experience to these budget phones aimed at customers who don’t want or need a high-end smartphone in their life.
